Marsha – learns to swim, surfs in HI and loves it, still runs when not driving the girls around

Christina – continues classical guitar, begins water polo, still runs (3rd place 5k Giants Race), claims misunderstood teen and threatens to run away and live with wolves (Marsha offers to pack her bags.)

Annalisa – continues with gymnastics, runs cross country (7th Grade League Finalist for school), starts water polo too, runs under protest and has 5th place 5k Giants Race, asks for sister’s clothing budget when Christina leaves to live with wolves

Love the annual communication! Missing you and our long chats…your girls have a wonderfully balanced life — music, sports, (and though you didn’t really touch on it here) academics (from what I remember) and, apparently, a love of animals (or at least wolves). Merry Christmas!
